[incoherent screaming] wip

Part 1

(little bit of a note, In this AU The juice bar regulars are like monster hunters or smthn idk, And the way Vampire works is, whenever a cookie is killed after having their blood draw, something of that cookie is added to Vampire. Energy, Height, and sometimes personality.)

Sparkling, Mint, and Herb chased frantically, the screaming putting them on this hunt had stopped, only putting them into more panic. Sparkling pointed to the ground "T-theres... a trail of... blood!" Mint almost dropped their only light source, he grimaced in discomfort smelling the metallic stench. Suddenly they approached a dead end in the Dirt path, only thing ahead was thick, untamed Forest. Suddenly, an unconscious body laid motionless on the dirt path, above them a hooded figure hovered, almost trembling. "you.. YOU MONSTER!" Cried out Mint, he held the light up, hopping for a better glimpse of the mysterious Villian. The hooded figure, startled by the sudden yelling, looked up in shock, as they hadn't even noticed the monster hunters had caught up to them, then quickly ran off into the trees. Herb and Sparkling rushed over to the poor victim, hoping they still had time to use their healing magic, unfortunately... it was too late for the young villager, as they laid there dead. "I'm... I'm so sorry, you poor child..." Herb said sorrowful and unsatisfied. Sparkling stood up, staring off into the forest "Did anyone else get a good look at the figure?" Mint nodded but herb frowned "I was... too worried about the villager to notice the figure.." Sparkling sighed "well, atleast now we have a suble description... Violet eyes, a-and I think I saw Red hair." Mint crossed his arms "We know someone with that description." Sparkling spun around, a look of anger crossed his face "Are you... Are you saying you think that was Vamp? I can't believe you!" Mint stepped back a little bit, he was shocked, he had never seen sparkling so sour with anyone. "Sparkling, Dont you think its funny the one day Vampire isn't with us is the one day we actually catch a monster in action?!" Sparkling turned away from him, clearly offended "Because he was under the weather, you know how sick he gets! And besides, we had already discussed this, his name is vampire because his parents were goth!" Herb chimed in, attempting to cut the tense aura "Besides, did you see how quick that hooded figure ran off? No way Vampire could run like that." Mint lit another lamp "Whatever, I'm going back to camp." He shoved it at Herb and stomped off with the other one. When Mint got back to camp, he noticed Sparkling and Vampire's door had been slightly ajar, he peeked inside only to see vampire laying right where he was when the group had gone off, still asleep. Mint sighed, feeling a bit guilty for accusing his friend and snapping at Sparkling, he decided it'd be best for him to go to his room.
When Vampire heard the clicking of Mint's door closing, he sat up panic painted all over his face. Had they saw him? Do they know he was the monster they had been chasing? He sighed, laying back down turning over to his side. How would he face his friends? How could he face his lover... suddenly, he felt an arm wrap around him, waking him from his daydreams. He jumped slightly, startled by this. "Sorry Vamp, didn't mean to scare you." Vamp began to relax, surly if Sparkling had crawled in bed to cuddle, they hadn't figured him out. "Mmh, what time is it?" He sat up, rubbing his eyes groggily. "1am, sorry for waking you." Vampire layer back down, scooting closer to sparkling "no its fine, I'm glad you're back." Sparkling continued to cuddle Vampire

Vampire woke up to Sparkling Clutching him rather tight, Vampire didn't mind this, but couldn't help but be a little uncomfortable by the way the bartender squeezed him. Normally Sparkling'd be the one to wake up first, but judging by the mile an hour thoughts, and attempted strangulation by Sparkling, Vampire is just too stressed to sleep in. "Sparky?" Vampire rubbed his hand over Sparkling's head "hmph... what?" Sparkling yawned and looked up at vamp "You're holden' on a lil too tight... kinda hurts-" Sparkling quickly let go "Oh! I'm so sorry Vamp!" Vamp ruffles spaekling's hair. "Dont worry about it, Sparks." When vampire stood up, Sparkling couldn't help but notice something was a bit off, he looked at vampire, and just barely put his finger on it. Vampire appeared taller, a healthy glow to his skin, and a bit more plush added to his figure. "Are you feeling any better? You look well rested, for once." Vampire smiled "Yeah, I guess I just needed to actually sleep unsteady of black out drunk, heh."
Vampire follows sparkling off into the main area where Mint and herb are having breakfast "Good morning! Oh Vamp, you look so much better!" Vampire took a seat beside Herb and Sparkling was soon to follow. The group continued to chat throughout the morning Mint couldn't help but feel uneasy "So, Vampire... How was your night?" Vampire tried to look confused "Really? Are you still on this?" Sparkling had a bit of bite in his tone. Mint stood up holding a knife "I- I dont want to hurt you... J-Just tell us what you did and I can report you.... I-I'm not in control of what happens next.." Mint trembled, guilt seeping into his bones. Sparkling and Herb stood up frantically "Mint! What is wrong with you?! We already told you he isn't a monster!" Sparkling was furious "Y-Yeah! He was sleeping the whole time we were gone!" Herb was frightened and worried for both Mint and Vamp's safety Sparklinf attempted to restrain Mint, trying to get the knife away, but Mint acted on impulse, and stabbed Sparllinf in the hand on accident "Oh... Oh my... I-I'm do sorry Sparkling I-" Sparkling cried out in pain, blood began to run down his hand. Vamp tried to hold it in, control himself on the sight and smell of fresh blood, especially that of his Lover, But hearing Sparkling so in pain, sent him into a rage. Vampire quickly ran over, separating Sparkling and Mint, Grabbing the knife and throwing it across the room. He pinned Mint to the wall, slamming him violently against the Tile. Mint quickly snapped out of the horror induced trance of stabbing his friend, his color began to drain as he stared into the Cold dead Violet eyes, Vamp's pupils were Slits and rage was painted all over his face. It was that moment Mint knew he was right, he had been right to worry, right to accuse, but now... will he even survive? Herb Quickly healed Sparkling, the wound disappearing completely, Sparlling was less worried about his health, and more preoccupied on Vampire's sudden actions "Vamp! What are you doing?!" Sparkling cried out, grabbing at Vamp's shoulder. Vampire leg go of Mint who had fallen to his knees, When Vamp turned to look at Sparkling, His eyes were still dull. Sparkling recognized that gaze, it was the same stare the Hooded figure had given... This couldn't be real? This was all just a dream! "Vamp... Vamp you.. It was you.." Vamp began to tear up "I'm sorry... I was going to tell you but... But it was too late." Mint Stumbled over to Herb, who helped him get his balance. "We cannot tell anyone about this." Sparkling turned to look at Herb and Mint "I will not risk Vampire's life."
